# Event Details - **Event Name**: SaugaTech - Defending The Prompt - Building Secure Tech Products in AI Era - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 20 Jun, 2026 at 01:00 pm – Sat, 20 Jun, 2026 at 03:00 pm - **Event Description**: SaugaTech Monthly Community Networking Meetup + Builders Showcase eventAbout this EventDefending The Prompt - Building Secure Tech Products in the AI EraOrganized by SaugaTech, supported by AI is moving fast. And with that speed comes a set of risks that most organizations — and most builders — haven't fully reckoned with yet. Prompt injection. Model manipulation. Data leakage through third-party AI integrations. Security architectures designed for deterministic software being asked to govern probabilistic systems. At our June 20 meetup, we're bringing two of the most technically sharp people in the SaugaTech community to open up an honest conversation about what technology risk and security actually look like in the AI era — from the ground up.? What We'll Do TogetherPart 1: Technology Risk & Security in the AI EraAries Youssefian and Samiul Islam will open the session — Aries from a systems architecture perspective, Samiul from a prompt engineering and model interaction lens. Between them, they've spent hundreds of hours building with, breaking, and securing AI systems in real environments. This won't be a lecture. They'll share their point of view, surface the questions that don't have clean answers yet, and then open it up to the room. The best part of every SaugaTech session is when the conversation takes over — and this one is designed for exactly that.What the discussion will cover:How AI systems introduce new attack surfaces that traditional security frameworks weren't built forPrompt injection, jailbreaking, and model manipulation — what they are and why they matter for buildersSecuring AI integrations: what to think about when your product depends on a third-party modelPart 2: Builders Showcase (Post-pizza ?)One of the things we hear most from this community is that people want more chances to share what they're actually working on — and to hear what others are building.So we're adding a dedicated Builders Showcase to this session. Three slots of ten minutes each. A startup idea you're testing. A side project you've been quietly building. A personal tool that's changed how you work. A community you're growing. Whatever it is — if you've been building something and want a room full of supportive, curious people to show it to, this is your moment. ? Who Is This For?Developers, engineers, and architects thinking about how to build AI systems responsiblyProduct managers and founders who've integrated AI into their products and are now asking the harder questionsSecurity professionals curious about how AI changes the threat landscapeMid-career professionals navigating the AI shift in their industryCareer switchers, students, and newcomers to Canada exploring the tech landscapeAnyone who is building something — or thinking about starting — and wants a room that will take it seriouslyNo specific background required. If you're curious about where AI and security intersect, you belong here. ? What You'll Walk Away WithA clearer mental model of the security and risk landscape for AI systemsPractical questions to ask — and things to watch for — in your own builds and integrationsExposure to what others in the western GTA are building right nowHonest conversations with people navigating the same challenges you areA wider network of builders and technologists right next door https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/5cb13ce0-6b49-11f1-884b-0fa428c2316e-rimg-w416-h740-dc1b1e0f-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/mississauga/saugatech-defending-the-prompt-building-secure-tech-products-in-ai-era/100001991406004968 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Meetups - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 1 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: all_ages - door_time: 2026-06-20T16:30:00Z - Duration: 2 hours - Location: IDEA Square One (IDEA Mississauga) - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: CAD ## Event venue details - **city**: Mississauga - **state**: ON - **country**: Canada - **location**: IDEA Square One (IDEA Mississauga) - **lat**: 43.592464 - **long**: -79.6458464 - **full address**: IDEA Square One (IDEA Mississauga), 100 City Centre Drive, Mississauga, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: SaugaTech - Defending The Prompt - Building Secure Tech Products in AI Era - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/e66f322dd74a4ee2ff05f9bf9993bf5653c47f645302441c7cc543e24516c87b-rimg-w540-h960-dc1b1e0f-gmir.jpg?v=1781072249 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is SaugaTech - Defending The Prompt - Building Secure Tech Products in AI Era being held? - **A:** SaugaTech - Defending The Prompt - Building Secure Tech Products in AI Era takes place on Sat, 20 Jun, 2026 at 01:00 pm to Sat, 20 Jun, 2026 at 03:00 pm at IDEA Square One (IDEA Mississauga), 100 City Centre Drive, Mississauga, Canada. - **Q**: Who is organizing SaugaTech - Defending The Prompt - Building Secure Tech Products in AI Era? - **A:** SaugaTech - Defending The Prompt - Building Secure Tech Products in AI Era is organized by SaugaTech. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "SaugaTech - Defending The Prompt - Building Secure Tech Products in AI Era", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/e66f322dd74a4ee2ff05f9bf9993bf5653c47f645302441c7cc543e24516c87b-rimg-w540-h960-dc1b1e0f-gmir.jpg?v=1781072249", "startDate": "2026-06-20", "endDate": "2026-06-20", "url": "https://allevents.in/mississauga/saugatech-defending-the-prompt-building-secure-tech-products-in-ai-era/100001991406004968", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "IDEA Square One (IDEA Mississauga)", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "100 City Centre Drive", "postalCode": "L5B 2C9", "addressLocality": "Mississauga", "addressRegion": "ON", "addressCountry": "CA" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "43.592464", "longitude": "-79.6458464" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "SaugaTech Monthly Community Networking Meetup + Builders Showcase event", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "CAD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-09-06", "availabilityEnds": "2026-06-20", "validFrom": "2026-09-06", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/mississauga/saugatech-defending-the-prompt-building-secure-tech-products-in-ai-era/100001991406004968" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "CAD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-09-06", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-09-06", "url": "https://allevents.in/mississauga/saugatech-defending-the-prompt-building-secure-tech-products-in-ai-era/100001991406004968", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "SaugaTech", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/saugatech/26923256", "description": "GTAs fastest growing tech community focusing on tech professionals and entrepreneurs in suburbs like Mississauga, Brampton, Oakville, Burlington etc" } ] } ] ```
